This study found that anagen stage protein homogenates and specific epitopes from melanogenesis proteins activated CD8 T cells, suggesting alopecia areata is an anagen-specific disease.

This paper proposes that the induction of HF-specific neo-antigens by peripheral CD8+ T cells may maintain self-tolerance but could also lead to immunopathology in conditions like alopecia areata.

Trichohyalin in hair can trigger immune attacks in alopecia areata.

This article discusses advancements and methodologies in epitope identification for autoimmune diseases, specifically alopecia areata, but does not report new experimental results.

In this study, researchers observed that alopecia areata patients showed higher Th1 and Th2 responses against specific melanogenesis-related protein epitopes, suggesting a role in disease activity and potential targets for diagnostics and therapies.

In this study, researchers observed that Melan A, a melanocytic marker, was significantly expressed in hair follicles of alopecia areata patients and correlated with immune infiltrates, suggesting melanocytes might contribute to the autoimmune response in this condition.

This study found an association between hydroxyl radical-modified SOD and alopecia areata, suggesting these modifications may lead to antibody induction in the condition.

Hair loss treatment caused more hair loss in a man.

This study reveals that CSPG4-positive basal cell keratinocytes show distinct global gene expression from CSPG4-negative cells, despite similar colony-forming efficiency.

This study demonstrated immunological cross-reactivity between mycobacterial heat-shock protein 65 and human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2, suggesting that this cross-reactive epitope might play a role in skin diseases.

This review discusses rodent models of alopecia areata and suggests they are crucial for understanding the autoimmune mechanisms and potential treatments but reports no new clinical results.

This article provides clinical snippets from Experimental Dermatology and reports no new research findings.

In this study, researchers found that alopecia areata patients show a significant reduction in suppressive regulatory T-cells and an increase in inflammatory T-cell populations, suggesting an immunological imbalance contributing to the disease.

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder causing hair loss, linked to specific hair follicle antigens and genetic factors.

This study found that MDA-modified DNA may contribute to immune responses in alopecia areata patients by creating neo-epitopes, providing new insights into the condition's immunological mechanisms.

R-spondin2 may help treat hair loss, gene differences could explain baldness, a peptide's regulation is linked to psoriasis, B-defensin gene copies may affect a skin condition's risk and severity, and potential markers and targets for alopecia areata were identified.

This study suggests that Ptprq in the hair bundles may exist as multiple isoforms that are differentially expressed throughout development and affect the organization of stereocilia in the chick inner ear.

This review summarizes recent advancements in follicular targeting for drug delivery via hair follicles and calls for pilot studies in humans to explore potential clinical applications.

This study found that mouse skin CD4(+) memory T cells are in equilibrium with the circulation under steady state but increase in specific clusters in response to infection or inflammation.

In this study, researchers found that alopecia areata is linked to immune cell activation against hair follicle autoantigens and is associated with heart changes and cardiac marker alterations in humans and mice.

In this study, the authors concluded that arabinogalactan proteins recognized by specific antibodies are involved in the differentiation and development of barley root epidermal cells, contributing to root hair development.
